MicroStrategy Surpasses Its Bitcoin Purchase Records of 2021, Inspiring a New Wave of Institutional Adoption
Dec 23, 2024 at 05:05 pm
In November 2024, MicroStrategy made its largest Bitcoin purchase ever recorded. According to Saylortracker, the company acquired successively 27,200 BTC
Institutional Bitcoin pioneer MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) recently achieved a historic milestone by surpassing the purchase volumes recorded during the 2021 bull market. This move showcases the company’s bold strategy and unwavering commitment to the flagship cryptocurrency.
In just two weeks, the company made its largest Bitcoin purchase ever recorded. According to Saylortracker, MicroStrategy acquired 27,200 BTC, 51,780 BTC, and 55,500 BTC successively, at an average price reaching up to $97,000 per Bitcoin. These purchases were significantly higher than the prices observed during the 2021 bull market.
For context, MicroStrategy’s largest purchase during the 2020-2021 bull market was 29,646 BTC, acquired on December 21, 2020, when Bitcoin was trading around $21,000. These massive acquisitions demonstrate an exceptional confidence in the long-term potential of the asset.
This bold strategy is also inspiring a new wave of institutional adoption. Many investors view MicroStrategy’s purchases as a key market indicator, which is attracting institutional capital and consolidating the legitimacy of Bitcoin as a store of value.
Moreover, MicroStrategy’s entry into the Nasdaq 100 is having a structural impact, bringing Bitcoin to traditional investors.
Today, December 23, 2024, MicroStrategy joins the Nasdaq 100, a significant achievement in its ascent. This index includes the 100 largest companies listed on the Nasdaq, and its inclusion provides traditional investors with indirect exposure to Bitcoin through an iconic company in the sector.
Furthermore, investors can now access Bitcoin through traditional financial instruments, thanks to MicroStrategy’s inclusion in this index. One example is the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF, which has approximately $322 billion in assets under management.
To strengthen its governance and credibility, MicroStrategy recently appointed several influential figures from the financial sector to its board of directors. These additions include Brian Brooks, former CEO of Binance.US and former US comptroller of the currency; Jane Dietze from Galaxy Digital; and Gregg Winiarski from Fanatics Holdings. This move showcases the company’s ambition to become a key player at the intersection of the financial and technological sectors.
In summary, with its record Bitcoin purchases in 2024 and its entry into the Nasdaq 100, MicroStrategy is establishing itself as the pioneer of institutional investment in cryptocurrencies. Its CEO Michael Saylor continues his ambitious strategy, paving the way for other companies to follow suit and invest in Bitcoin.
